The Harrow Balmoral Football Netball Club is a sports club based in the towns of Harrow and Balmoral in Western Victoria, Australia. The club has netball and Australian Rules Football teams competing in the Horsham District Football League.[1]
The club was formed following a merger of Balmoral Football Club and Douglas-Harrow-Miga Lake Football Club in November 1996. A coin toss by new president Tom Houlihan determined the name to be Harrow Balmoral and not Balmoral Harrow.[2]
The theme song is "We are Blue, We are White", written by Brenda Smith and sung to the tune of "Along the Road to Gundagai".
Harrow-Balmoral won its first football seniors premiership in 1999, defeating Kalkee Football Club by 1 point.[3] The A Grade Netball won their first premiership the same year. The senior footballers have won 5 further premierships in the Horsham District league.
Harrow Balmoral maintain a rivalry with neighbouring club Edenhope Apsley. They play for the West Wimmera Shield every year, of which the winner is the club with the most wins when the two sides meet.[4]
